Context: Nursing Ethics and philosophy

I was born In1972 in a conservative society in a third world country. This society, which had its functions divided according to traditional ideologies and culture, had great influence on my perspective of life while growing up. My culturally oriented belief was that women were not meant to have professional ambitions in prestigious careers. Thus, they were supposed to be limited to those professions that were considered to be of little importance in the society. Nursing was one of those professions I considered reserved for women.
When I visited a hospital one day to have a wound treated, I experienced a life-changing event. A male nur...

The colored picture showing the burning port of Richmond has several contrasting colors. The background is painted in shades of orange while the foreground has the shades of grey and a little color blue.

The width of the river separates the two contrasting banks. However, the bridge and the impressions on it indicate that there is a movement from the bright bank to the dark one. The impression of distance i...

1. Identify and explain the strategic direction of the organization:
For a firm to achieve its goals, it has to develop a strategy for dealing with the various challenges in the business environment.

a) Immanuel Kant believes that suicide is morally wrong. How would Kant argue for this position? Explain:

Immanuel Kant maintains a radical position regarding the act of committing suicide, or even attempting to take one’s own life. To Kant, those who commit suicide or even attempt it are lesser than other human beings. Kant cites the superiority of the human race as the reason for his opposition to suicide. Moreover, human character is superior to that of animals. When one commits suicide, he or she compares human character to that of an animal or an object. Kant says that the well-being of a human being is supreme, thu...

However, in the modern times, bioethics has taken a different turn to incorporate broader thinking. Several authorities have sought to change the way contemporary bioethics is approached. Since bioethics has taken a more social dimension, it is evolving into a contentious issue. In fact, bioethics emerged in the American society before spreading to the rest of the world, and eventually getting acceptance among religious groups. All societies and movements tha...

Reconsidering the Concept Of DAP:
Politics of Truth;
In “Becoming Post Culturally Reflective about Truth” by MacNaughton, the phrase “politics of truth” emerges as a new terminology relating the formal education system and the development of a child. This term focuses on truth in the education of children. The truth in question is the persistent and repetitive discrimination of certain children by the education system. The system refuses to acknowledge that children are different and require different pedagogical approaches for proper and equitable development (MacNaughton, 2005).
